74 Ford Granda

74 Ford Granada 4 Door

Jane Creswell's car. She picked it out, and liked it, drove it to her job as a teacher's aide, until one day she was driving with me to school, and we were in an accident.

It was replaced by The Ford Granada Sport 2 door 3 speed, picked out by Dad.

Picture is Jane, trip to Colorado in 1975

Story:
Quartet stayed at body shop owner's house. Owner showed it to Dad. It was a wreck recovery. He had put in a later model flathead v8. Had  3 speed + overdrive, dual pipe straight exhaust. 
Brother once pulled all his plugs and wires when he was mad.
Chicks did not dig it, because it messed up their hair.
